Equi-Feeds Breeding Horse FeedsHALF THE BREEDING IS IN THE FEEDING

Horses raised on Equi-Feeds have won almost every graded race, produced top Broodmares and record prices for young stock on the commercial sales market. Our Stud Feeds represent a palatable mix for Broodmares during pregnancy and lactation and are ideal for feeding to other stud animals, providing ample nutrients for working stallions and growing young stock. It is important not to underestimate the nutrient requirement of a Broodmare during the last trimester of her pregnancy. Sixty percent of foetal development takes place during the last trimester of pregnancy, whilst forty percent of the foal's skeletal structure develops inside the mare. When developmental bone disorders are found in foals less than two weeks old, this may indicate malnutrition of the broodmare during the last trimester. A mare’s milk yield is dependent not just on genetics also on the energy and nutrient intake during pregnancy and lactation.

Equi-Feeds Stud Feed and Oats 12% (Meal/Cube) Reg. No. V17033 (Act 36 of 1947)Low protein feed for mares on high protein pastures and/or hay sources that receive adequate levels of concentrated feed per day. A palatable mix for broodmares during pregnancy and lactation that need to be kept on high protein pastures. Good pastures normally have a high protein content, but lack in minerals and trace minerals. The mare's milk yield is dependant not just on genetics but also on energy and nutrient intake during pregnancy and lactation. It is therefore very important that mares are fed a balanced ration. This ration contains calcium, phosphorus, magnesium, copper, manganese, zinc, selenium, organic selenium and biotin for the development of strong bones, joints and hooves. The selenium, zinc, copper, manganese, vitamin E and vitamin Aimproves the fertility in breeding mares and spermatogenesis in stallions. Equi-Feeds Stud Feed and Oats 14% (Meal/Cube) Reg. No. V17032 (Act 36 of 1947)

A feed for mares on pastures and/or hay sources that contain lower protein levels. It contains higher levels of amino acids to comply with the additional demands of reproduction (lactation) and growth in young horses. A palatable mix for broodmares during pregnancy and lactation. This stud mix is also ideal for feeding to other stud animals as it provides ample nutrients for working stallions and growing young stock. It is very important that mares are fed a balanced ration. This rations contains higher levels of lysine and methionine to comply with the additional demands of reproduction (lactation) and growth in young horses. It also contains higher levels of calcium, phosphorus, magnesium, copper, manganese, zinc, selenium, organic selenium and biotin for the development of strong bones, joints and hooves. The selenium, zinc, copper, manganese, vitamin E and vitamin A improve the fertility in breeding mares and spermatogenesis in stallions.

This feed contains high quality protein, high levels of minerals, trace minerals, vitamins and the best combination of energy sources, including cereals, fibre and cold pressed Canola Oil, to provide consistent growth and development. It is a palatable mix for broodmares during pregnancy and lactation. This stud feed is also ideal for feeding to other stud animals, providing ample nutrients for working stallions and growing young stock. This stud feed was originally formulated for the Robertson Area, in the Western Cape, and proved to be so successful that many breeders currently use it across the country. This ration contains higher levels of lysine and methionine to comply with the additional demands of reproduction (lactation) and growth in young horses. It also contains a variety of minerals and vitamins for development of strong bones and hooves. The selenium, zinc, copper, manganese, vitamin E and A improve fertility in breeding mares and spermatogenesis in stallions. In addition the Robertson Stud Feed 15% contains live yeast culture to sustain and enhance colonisation of micro organisms in the hind gut for better digestion, absorption and general gut health. It also contains a mycotoxin binder.
